Market gauge is calculated using active listings and pending sales from the most recently available reporting period (Jul 2026 - Sep 2026).
Home values in Scranton have climbed notably over the past year, with the typical home value up about 7 percent in this rolling three-month view. Asking prices have grown even faster, with the median list price rising nearly 19 percent year over year. At the same time, homes sold have dipped roughly 6 percent from a year ago, signaling that higher prices may be weighing on activity.
In the most recent three-month period ending in September 2026, buyers saw more options, as active listings were up about 4 percent compared with last year. Months of supply expanded to 3.6, a jump of more than 75 percent year over year, which points to a market that is less tight than it was. Even with that shift, homes are still moving at a steady pace, with a median of 22 days on market and nearly 40 percent going off the market in two weeks.
Pricing power remains strong for sellers, with roughly 36 percent of recent sales closing above the list price and an average sale-to-list ratio just under 100 percent. However, pending sales are down about 17 percent year over year, suggesting buyers are becoming more selective even as inventory improves. In this environment of rising prices but easing supply pressures, both buyers and sellers can benefit from Agent Pronto’s help finding an agent who understands current trends in Scranton.
Scranton offers residents a welcoming, livable city with a strong sense of community, rich history, vibrant culture, quality schools, and ample opportunities for work, education, and outdoor recreation.
Scranton offers a distinctly urban, close‑knit feel compared with nearby towns like Wilkes‑Barre or Kingston. Once known primarily for coal and railroads, the city today blends historic architecture, walkable neighborhoods, and an active community scene that appeals to lifelong residents and newcomers alike.
Downtown Scranton centers around restored landmarks, local businesses, and destinations such as the Lackawanna County Courthouse Square. Cultural anchors like the Everhart Museum and Scranton Cultural Center at the Masonic Temple support year‑round arts programming. Outdoor time is easy to find at Nay Aug Park, with its trails, treehouse, and seasonal events.
Scranton’s neighborhoods range from the historic streets around Green Ridge to family‑focused areas near West Scranton. Local schools, including Scranton High School, and institutions like The University of Scranton and Lackawanna College, contribute to a strong educational presence and steady housing demand. Access to I‑81 and the nearby Steamtown National Historic Site adds to the city’s appeal for commuters and history enthusiasts.
Whether you are weighing a move into your first Scranton home or considering listing a long‑owned property, timing and preparation matter in this evolving market.

While I hope to not buy another house anytime soon, I would definetely recommend Nick to anyone looking to buy or sell!”
